PYPD is the concert companion for the 2026 CORTIS -TOUR - PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN. One rule: the phone goes in your pocket, and your movement becomes part of the show. BE THE INSTRUMENT Check in when you arrive at the venue on show night. From that moment, your steps, jumps, and dancing are measured by your phone's motion sensors. Screen off, phone pocketed. No filming, no scrolling. Just you and everyone around you. FEEL THE ROOM LIGHT UP Every fan's motion feeds one shared, live energy meter. See how many COER are checked in around you and push the crowd's energy to its peak, together, in real time. YOUR NIGHT, WRAPPED When the lights come up, get your show recap: your energy, your rank in the crowd, and your moment in the tour. Fans who move make the credits. CITY VS. CITY Every show feeds the tour leaderboard, ranked by average energy per fan, so a theater crowd can out-dance an arena. Put your city on top. BUILT FOR THE PIT, NOT THE FEED Movement is measured on your device; only your energy score is shared to the leaderboard. Location is checked once at check-in to confirm you're at the venue. It is processed on-device and never uploaded. PYPD comes alive at shows of the 2026 CORTIS tour. Real shows unlock at the venue during showtime.
